SOPA DE GARBANZOS - CHICKPEA SOUP
When my mom and I were cleaning out one of her kitchen cabinets, we found a box of recipes that she had clipped from newspapers and magazines. This one came from an article in the Houston Post (no longer in circulation), October 1989. The article was about traditional Mexican soup dishes and contained several wonderful and authentic recipes. This filling soup can be made vegetarian by using vegetable stock and omitting the bacon.

Steps:
- Rinse and drain the chickpeas. Chop the onions, garlic, and tomatoes.
- Put the chickpeas and 1/4 cup broth into a blender and puree until smooth. Add the puree to the remaining broth in a large soup pot and simmer over medium heat for 15 minutes.
- Fry the bacon in a large skillet; remove and set aside. Saute the garlic and onions in the same pan until soft. Add tomatoes and cook 3 more minutes. Drain off as much fat as possible.
- Add vegetables and bacon to the simmering soup and season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Simmer until heated through. Serve very hot.

[email protected]This soup was a bit too spicy for my taste, but I still thought it was very good. I'll probably reduce the amount of chili powder next time I make it.
